Private tags, especially in older or non-standard DICOM files, may be encoded in a different byte order (Endianness) than the rest of the file. A program reading the file might parse the private data incorrectly, treating a simple number as gibberish. This is a very specific but difficult-to-diagnose problem. indexofprivatedcim
